162 Treasure

By the way, there is also magic pattern armor.

A flash of understanding flashed through Leo's mind. This was also an indispensable step, but now, Captain Cary's magic swordsman has not yet taken shape, so there is no rush to do so.

"Sir, something happened." Leo looked at Shulton who was rushing over, with a look of horror on his face.

Shulton was the leader of the intelligence agency "The Whisperers" he established. Of course, the Whisperers were still in their infancy at this time.

The Marquis Territory has risen too fast, and its suddenly expanded strength has left many areas lacking, such as the intelligence agencies, which are somewhat powerless.

However, as a time traveler, Leo has been deeply influenced by spy war dramas, and some of his knowledge is considered beyond ordinary people. The strength of the Whisperer is destined to be extraordinary from the beginning. Perhaps every trafficker and lackey may have someone who is not.

Known as the Whisperer.

And the single-line contact, tracking and anti-tracing methods, code books, and various endurance training and intelligence analysis training they relied on made the strength of this new organization develop at an unimaginable speed from the moment it was founded.

However, the Whisperers' time is still short after all. Within the Marquis Territory, in cooperation with the statistics department, the Marquis Territory seems to be monolithic, but within the kingdom and even on the continent of Pendor, its strength seems a bit weak.

Therefore, Leo has really not seen Shulton so panicked for some time. In the past, matters within the Marquis Territory were assisted by the Governor's Mansion, and major events have become minor. Things outside the Marquis Territory, today's Whisperer,

The information was not as good as what Leo had received from the Merchant or Solo had received from the Wind Patroller.

Therefore, seeing Shulton hurriedly looking for him, Leo also had a little expectation. Could it be that the Whisperer can finally work? Now, he is not afraid of big things, but afraid that nothing will happen at all.

The foundation of the Marquis Territory is enough to deal with many disturbances. Even during this period of time, the soldiers have become somewhat relaxed after being calm for too long. This is not a good sign.

"My lord, Viscount Leofric had a dispute with someone in the Tariq Mountains a few days ago, and was defeated. The baron himself suffered heavy losses," said Shulton, "but the enemy is very mysterious. They

Easily defeated the baron's escort and then took away a treasure."

"Tariq Mountains?" Leo subconsciously raised his eyebrows and said with a frown, "Can't he be from the empire?"

Leo still kept this location firmly in mind. To the north of the Tarik Mountains, the small town of Trubrun was once the center of the Barony of Archimonde and the surrounding nobles, and the most prosperous place.

Viscount Leofric himself was also a noble from the nearby lands. However, since Leo's rise, the center of all nearby lands has become the Marquis Territory and the core city of the Marquis Territory, Lanxia City.

Of course, Leofric's status at that time was also very important, because south of the town of Trubrun in his territory was the Tarik Mountains where this incident took place, and further south from the Tarik Mountains was the Tarik Mountains.

The territory of the Bacchus Empire, the kingdom's mortal enemy.

The Shieldwind Fortress in the south of the Tariq Mountains is one of the empire's outposts on its way to the north, and the Empire's Governor Levi is an even more feared presence.

It is precisely because of this that Viscount Leofric of Trubrun has an unusual status. His military strength is particularly strong. He relies on the natural dangers of the Tarik Mountains to firmly guard the southern border.

At this time, he heard that Viscount Leofric was in trouble in the Tarik Mountains. Even though Shulton had already stated in advance that he was a mysterious man, Leo still couldn't help but feel worried. Now the important task of guarding the southern border of the kingdom rests on his shoulders.

.

Although nobles have an outstanding status in the Kingdom of Lion Realm, they also have corresponding responsibilities to match their current status. For example, the former Viscount Leofric may have less responsibility if something goes wrong.

But with Leo's status as a marquis, if something happened and he was driven in by the imperial army, he would still bear a great responsibility.

"According to the report from our Whisperer, it was Viscount Leofric's private soldiers who encountered a group of natives living in the Tariq Mountains. The natives seemed to have a treasure that caused turmoil in the mountains, and they were exploited.

Unilla, the youngest son of Viscount Ofric, was interested in leading someone to rob him.

However, I did not expect that the strength of the natives was far beyond imagination. Not only did Unilla and others fail to plunder, but they also lost themselves. Viscount Leofric's private army suffered serious losses, and his youngest son

Unilla even had her legs broken," Shulton said.

"Treasure?" Leo's mouth revealed a hint of amusement, "What kind of treasure can make Unila ignore the difference in strength? And what is the background of the natives? How can ordinary bandits dare to compete with Li?

Viscount Ofric is against me?"

After all, although the disparity in strength is difficult to see at a glance, it can be vaguely perceived through multiple methods. A capable person could have even had his legs broken. It is conceivable that Viscount Leofric's private soldiers also had their legs broken.

I definitely tried my best.

After all, the bloodline of the nobles is too important. As a result, it is obvious that the enemy's strength has far exceeded theirs. This is a bit interesting. Is it so easy to sense it?

"You are right, Lord Marquis," Shulton nodded and said, "The reason why we call them mysterious people is because the bodies of those indigenous people are extremely tall. The shortest ones are more than three meters tall, and some are even as tall as five meters.

meters away.

Their bodies are extremely large, and their skin is particularly resistant to resistance. According to the Viscount's private soldiers, their bows and arrows cannot effectively kill the enemy at all.

But the opponent used the big tree as a weapon, and with a single sweep, they broke their bones, making it difficult to fight."

"Does this mean that the other party has kept his hand? Interesting," Leo said with a playful look in his eyes. Since he kept his hand, he must have had some scruples. He knew some information and was unwilling to form too deep a relationship with the kingdom.

However, what Shulton said still made him a little curious. Such a tall person obviously should not be a pure human. Now, with the precedent of dwarves and the previous goblins, Leo has no idea about

Non-human species would not make a fuss.

I just don’t know what kind of race they are? Can they still survive in this kingdom?

And what is the treasure that caused Unilla to fight for it regardless of the gap between the two sides?

"Then... what are the casualties of those enemies?" Leo thought of this very crucial point, "It's not like they can't be defeated... Well, there are just no casualties, right?"

"I heard that one person was injured by Viscount Leofric's guard captain. He was seriously injured but did not kill the other person. As for ordinary soldiers, they can only cause minor injuries. If they are unlucky, they may not be able to do anything."

Shulton said.

"What?" Leo raised his eyebrows first. Viscount Leofric's private soldiers are definitely not useless. They must have been able to dominate this area before, and they should be of some level. How could the battle situation be so bad?

"What is the rank of guard captain?" This is the key point.

"I don't know. Some people say it's the seventh level of the Fierce Lion Realm armed infantry, and some say it's the eighth level. I don't know exactly what level it is," Shulton said with a wry smile, but he was also a little helpless.

If he could really be sure, he would have informed Leo a long time ago. Why would he wait for the lord to take the initiative to ask questions?

"Very good, Shulton, you did a good job this time. Next month, I will increase your funding by 50%," Leo smiled and nodded, "As for the news about the Viscount Leofric,

Pay close attention.

If necessary, you can provoke the antagonism between the viscount and the enemy," Leo ordered lightly, but he didn't take it too seriously.

After all, it is now known that the enemy is the mysterious natives in the Tarik Mountains, not the empire. Although these natives are somewhat powerful, they are not worth worrying about.

Because he has not heard of the other party, this means that the other party has not been active in the past few decades. This kind of otaku has no idea how much energy he spends. Not every otaku is as tyrannical as Noldor.

Moreover, even if there is a one-in-ten thousand chance, the other party really has such terrifying strength. Since there has been no movement for so many years, it will not be detrimental to the kingdom if it comes out, right? This is a different threat from the empire. As we all know, the empire has always been

Covetously eyeing the kingdom.

As for what the Whisperer did, it was just to have a backup plan. Although he is now the largest lord in the southeastern realm, he has the power to recruit small lords to fight for him when facing other places, even Leo.

Viscount Frick, all must obey.

But on weekdays, everyone is relatively independent. This is also the system of the Fierce Lion Realm Kingdom, let alone what happens on the other side's territory. No matter how curious he is, he cannot intervene in any obvious way, otherwise it will

It will inevitably be resisted by all the lords.

He could only hope that Viscount Leofric would have a bigger conflict with the other party, so that the viscount would lose his troops and have to ask him for help, and he would have the opportunity to intervene in an honest way.

Moreover, Leofric, as the most powerful viscount in his neighborhood, had not had a harmonious relationship in the past. Leo was still happy to see the other party's strength further weakened. The Leofric family, here

The prestige of the nearby land is relatively high.

When Shulton heard this, he had doubts in his heart, but he still followed the order. A large number of Whisperers headed towards Leofric's Viscounty, and the huge Viscounty was already filled with a chilling atmosphere at this time.

"Trash!" Viscount Leofric was a man over fifty years old. His ears and temples were full of wind and frost, his face was very dark, and his aura was extremely heavy. He was facing a bandaged man with a paper-colored face in the hall.

The young man roared angrily.

The terrifying momentum made countless people around him dare not interrupt. Leofric, as the uncrowned king of the nearby land, was naturally very powerful. Unilla was even more obsequious in front of her father, not daring to speak at all.

Argument.

"You didn't grab it. Don't you know how precious that egg is? If we get it, we can even try to breed those giants. In the future, the status of the viscounty will be more stable, even if it's that

A young marquis would have some scruples.

But you loser, not only did the operation fail, but you also revealed our intentions, especially since you were so ostentatious about offering a reward. Didn't you let everyone know that we were going for the giant egg?" Li

Viscount Ofric wanted to slap Unilla to death in front of him.

What was said in the words was not what Shulton had detected at all. From what he heard, Viscount Leofric actually had a plan in advance, rather than a chance encounter between Unila and those giants, and the core of the matter was

, that is, the treasure that Shulton guessed turned out to be an egg!

At this time, Leofric was even more angry. He had been coveting the giant egg for a long time. The giants in the mountains attached great importance to the egg. Every morning, they would place it in the most illuminated place in the Tariq Mountains.

place, and then release the blood of countless giants to breed this precious egg.

And after countless tracking and analysis by his spies, he finally found a moment when the opponent was most relaxed, and asked Unilla to lead someone to rob it. However, he never expected that the opponent failed.

To put it simply, it was fine if it failed. There would still be opportunities in the future. However, when his incompetent son failed, he did not follow his instructions and lead the troops to retreat immediately. Instead, he further encircled and tried to make up for it.

This is not bad, after all, it is good to save it in case of success, but who knows what Unilla was thinking at the time, and actually mobilized the adventurers who went to the Tarik Mountains at that time, in the name of the Viscount Castle, to launch a

A heavy reward was placed.

Although this was a great way to motivate many adventurers to work for them and get a lot of help out of thin air, it also told everyone that their family was coveting a treasure.

And afterwards, Unilla didn’t silence all those people!

Although it is no small matter that all those adventurers were silenced, but if Unila really did it, Viscount Leofric would not blame him too much. It was all for the sake of getting that

treasure.

But Unilla is still young after all, and cannot be like Viscount Leofric, who treats civilian adventurers as nothing. She only thought of mobilizing strength, but did not deal with the aftermath. As a result, she planned an incident and failed to obtain the giant egg.

The news about the baby was leaked.

This is what makes Viscount Leofric angry. Presumably, the specific information about the treasure will be completely leaked soon, which will attract a lot of covetousness, which will cause trouble.

Everyone might not be that rare about giant eggs, but no one would sit back and watch if they could attract a huge bounty from the Viscount's castle and snatch the treasure at the expense of soldiers and generals.

Moreover, Leofric was even more worried that the news of this treasure would reach that person's ears. This giant egg may not be something that ordinary adventurers would cherish the most.

In other words, it is difficult for ordinary people to get anything from it. At most, it can be resold. The giants it may cultivate will have no effect on ordinary people.

But it is different for the nobles. Not to mention the popularity and cards, if they can support such a big man and wear the armor made by humans, he will be a force that can intimidate all parties, no less than a high-level strong man!

High-level experts may have various thoughts, but a strong enough giant who has been raised since childhood, has an absolutely simple mind, and can make many giants protect him, how can it be ordinary?

Although everyone has selectively ignored one question, that is, why do giants have eggs?
